Bollman Hat Company

Welcome to the greatest collaboration of all time. Two companies, one glorious country. In celebration of Bollman Hat Company’s 150th anniversary (yes, you read that right), the two greatest hat companies of all time, American Hat Makers and Bollman Hat Company, have partnered up to release some never before seen, yet timeless hat styles to commemorate both of their long and successful histories. Combined, this endeavor brings two hundred years of hat-making expertise to the table. These breathtaking new hats are brought forth by the top designers from both of our companies. These hats are made in extremely small batches, one at a time, by the finest American artisans, so please allow 4-6 weeks for your hat to be crafted. The Small Batch Collection is now available for only a short while, and can be found here! Each hat is going to be sold for $300 and comes with a USA made Hammer Plastics Hat Carrier, complete with lockable latches and a built-in mirror.

American Hat Makers attended the 108th Annual Head Wear Association Dinner! The Headwear Association is the oldest association in the hat trade, and in fact, the oldest of its kind in the world. Their mission is to promote hat wearing, the headwear industry throughout the world, and foster goodwill and fellowship among those engaged in the headwear industry.
